They're not demoted. Giovanni is missing and the secretary tells them that TR is basically over, they can do what they like. They decide to keep going as TR and find Giovanni. James then decides he needs a Pokemon and asks Yamask if it'd like to join them. He then captures it.

So they're basically doing a Gold/Silver storyline but with TR? Ok, but I swear if every episode from now on is blasting off again I'll jump off a building.

Not only did I not get to see James catching Yamask, I also didn't get to see the rest of the episode.

But love Ash's Swadloon, and I'm so hoping that energy ball is a replacement for razor leaf.

Misinterpreting my posts is not your fault, negative repping me, and getting very sensitive about my posts because you misinterpreted my posts however is your fault. Think really hard, before negative repping or making a big deal about my posts. I don't appreciate being negative repped for reasons that are a result of misinterpreting my posts.

@Chimchar15: It remains to be seen. I didn't hear them mention Pikachu, someone said they did, but Key Hole was incredibly laggy so nfi. Have to wait until I can get a clear copy from my friend to know for sure. They may not even interact with the main gang very much at all (at least until Ep 33)

I can't lie I was watching the episode and I pretty sure Meowth said Pikachu as well. My heart was literally pounding when I heard them saying their old motto and putting on their old clothing.

Say what you want, but I was starting to get used to the Serious TR, seeing them in their old uniforms, I hope they go back to doing what they used to do, while still doing missions and being serious, i miss the old TR.

My heart was pounding too, seeing all of this stuff happening. Wait they said their old motto?!

Yep, PK, they did a version of the TR motto which hasn't been seen since, the Munna ep, right?

Interestingly, despite the amount of promo Yamask and Cofagrigus have been getting, they do not feature on the infamous lunch box which has so far predicted every other evo/capture featured since it was discovered.

I don't mind seeing Team Rocket going back to their old ways. It does open up some new opportunities - I don't want to see TR blasting off again any time soon, but more battles (and I mean GOOD battles) with the trio could be good.

I hope they do find Giovanni (fairly) soon, and go back to being serious though. In BW033, it looks like they're on some sort of mission anyway, so here's hoping.

Overall, this was a great episode though. Lots of content, and a great battle. It's great seeing Sewaddle/Swadloon having some success - it fought really well.

Pretty sure they did. We just have to wait and see more to see if they really go back to their old ways. Either way good gym battle not outstanding but good.

They used their old motto in episode 6? My memories fading, I thought they last used it in that DP episode when they wanted to "Do things like they used to" A lean Mean team rocket Machine I think.

But that's cool, I had no sound for some reason, but the animation for their motto sequence, is now better than the one in episode 6, when they went with the whole black and white colours. It looked awesome.

Since Jessie, James & Meowth seems to be back to there old ways, i can see them again playing comic role in the upcoming movie (i was thinking that if they kept there serious tone going on like this, they wouldn't appear in the movie anymore, but now its changed).
